THE WORST CRASHES OF MY MTB CAREER!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 сер 2024
- I've pulled together ALL of the worst crashes I've ever had on my mountain bikes, in my entire MTB career. It's actually crazy to see how many things I've messed up so badly over the years, backflips, double backflips, 720's and even just riding downhill or enduro tracks. But crashing is kind of important so enjoy the carnage!!
8:00 “He’s on his hard tail” ha famous last words
Marcus Kurschat little did he know he breaks his helmet in crankworx routarua
Lol
Fucking hell were the famous last words haha
Hard tail rules!
I never took into consideration the risks and consequences when I decided to pursue a career in professionally walking up and down the stairs.
Me either
Yeah you never know when you'll knock yourself out while going down a step
It’s not going down the stairs… but going up the stairs that has the worst crashes
I’m 43 now and getting back into mtb after watching your vids 👍
Awesome to see comments like this it's a unique sport you don't have to be doing mad tricks just have fun dude
@@alpeaceandlove I'm 50 and you are right, as long as you are having fun it doesn't matter (I'm definitely never going to be in the mad tricks category)
I'm 39 just getting back into it as well matt is awesome but also check out Sam pilgrim if u haven't yet he's mint as well
i am 10 years younger but i don't even think of doing backflips (or double backflips, wtf) at my age any more. but just started trail riding and there really are good riders at any ages between like 12 and 60 around.
Interesting you put this comment under this video
Love your honesty Matt.. I'm nearly 68yrs old just started jumping in may 2021.. never been on a mountain bike before.. had loads of bad crashes... But have learnt from every one of them.. and yes the pain really hurts..ouch!! But I love it..💯🚴🤸
5:29 after face planting the ground so hard that guy goes ‘you aright’ in such a calm way. I was laughing so hard 😂😂
Friend: Hits hard dirt straight in the face possibly snapping his neck in the meanwhile
Camera man: Are you alright?
Watch MHA and JoJo atleast he asked lol 😂 some people would just laugh
He have a very tough balls lmao
Haha I remember having a terrible crash at fort William, brused my femur, when I landed people were like "are you ok?" I was like "no", just an awkward silence....
Mike Walls that so true people will ask if u are ok and if u say no they will have no idea what to do😅
@@lonelyglader8154 haha they were all silent, I eventually got up and walked off, you could smell the relief, next day my entire leg was purple, I guess they were just hoping I was ok which is nice, I wish I had video of the crash it was naaaaaasty.
7:56 first time i ever heard you swear before
nick de ridder nl?
Omg
pj bj 135 wdym
I keep coming back to this video not because I enjoy it but rather because it makes me realize the immense amount of work one needs to put in in order to be able to do great things. I really admire your commitment and perseverance and yes I absolutely agree with everything you said...knowing your limits is key...and the only way to find your limits is pushing yourself each time a little bit more. Cheers from Canada.
Brother, I’m so happy you shared those crashes! I’m still recovering from my worst which sucked ... yeah,with a punctured lung and sooo many ppl trying to get me to quit riding! But you’re an inspiration!
Keep riding- Peace!
Life’s for living I’m 43 love riding and will never stop
double flip to faceplant...
camera man: you alright?
I’ve got plenty of these to come. Just bought a hard tail at the ripe old age of 32 and I’ve moved next door to Swinley forest. Daily injuries coming up
amen, i got back into mtb at 29 two years ago theres lots of ouchies to come, good/bad thing about swinley is there is only one real jump to do some damage on. i was there two weeks ago and a kid had knocked himself out on it. he was ok but its easily done.
zeus dreadbeard only one jump to do damage on? I reckon I can manage getting hurt on the ride there 😂
How's things man your still alive?
@@DJ-wl5yi guess thats a no ?
Ay swinley
This is this best background video , showing all the work put in over the years Matt . Many start to take for granted the tricks and jumps That you and Sam do and forget the hours, months, years ! spent failing to become as good as you both are . This video needed to be in your Collection of work ! shows the true effort and dedication of ultra sportsmen .
You should use that outro for every video!
Ocean Fal-Cav Rides how do you want us to send our crashes? Via ig?

Frames of mind is probably THE BEST video I've seen ever, you sir are a legend in the world of mtb freeriding 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Frames of Mind is still awsome😎🤘
Great Video
Hard Crashes
Ride on!
I’ve got to tell you about my 1988 crash. I was a1st cat velodrome sprinter. Sponsored by British Airways, put in a road race! A little history, I would commonly brake rear wheels, frames, pedals and even a seat post!!!
So my crash, I managed to snap a crank during a road race and split my left knee open to a point where my bone was sticking out!
My first reaction was “wow” that’s my bone! And then pain kicked in!
Love your show Matt!!
"you alright?..." MADLAD!!! Matt you're a Legend really, you haven't failed ever, you've just got wiser and better from each crash...just take care of that noggin you've only got one! Keep on you legend you!
Damn Matt! Blood sweat and tears would be an understatement. Every credit to you dude!
8 years in the marines, I had some “good” injuries.
30 years racing motocross, mtn bikes, skiing, and surfing, my body is destroyed.
I only regret not getting a recommended surgery, after six of them, i didn’t want anymore.
Still a marine?
Can't say I really blame ya. That's a helluva ride man, thank you for your service!
Haha, you know exactly who shouted “oh my god” when you cased that jump! 🤣🙌🏻
2:55 ... Could have gone SOOOO much worse. 5:26 was brutal too! love your channel and your riding. Keep up the solid work Matt!
I've definitely been avoiding this video like I do all crash videos, but I finally watched. I hate to put those thoughts or images into my head is why I never watch them, but I like how you put it together. Definitely shows another side of things I've yet to see from you I feel. I like it man. Keep up everything you do, you're awesome!
Full respect ...you have a great outlook and can laugh at yourself... Legend!!!
You have to think about it like this: when he falls off on a massive jump it’s like falling from a 2 story building onto hard ground. You could easily break your neck if you land wrong which can happen easier when your flipping around after coming off a bike
I love these kinds of videos cuz it shows you that all these pros are not superheroes and they had to go through all the same crashes and injuries as the rest of us. They just get up that much quicker and push that much harder to do it again.
the nature of crashing bike is that 7 out of every 100 will be like a crankset to the bridge of the nose or stem to the testicles. in all your crashes you come so close to those worst few you crazy lucky bastard. like nearly landing in a handstand for the red bull video. unreal respect man
One of the most important videos out there. Never give up and look what you can achieve!
I guess this now has to be updated! Bummer in Innsbruck.
Haha broke my finger after i watched this vid and went riding🤘🏽
8:05 that noise is brutal
Doing tricks like that on a bmx is hard. But the fact that he can do that on a mountain bike or dirt jumper is amazing🤩
Love how he randomly is filming in the snow
I just overshotted a home made jump so clucking hard and was one centimeter from dying
Your videos are so inspirational, love how upbeat you’re!
These videos are brilliant, and very rarely do you hear swearing and bad language. I respect this guy a lot.
i cant watch all the bike stuff, so i choose this dude to focus on. killer content Matt 😃🤘
I think that it's good to show even pros can't always do stuff first T which gives people hope and understanding to get up and try again. Respect dude 🤙
I remembered my first worst crash back in 2012. Was riding a hardtail enduro bike doing streets. Jumped from 2nd floor to mid level of a staircase, back of my bike bounce up so high where my front was facing the floor at a 60 degree angle and crashed. The impact was so hard that my front tire burst, rim and spokes crushed, crankarm bend inwards to the frame, seat post broken and the saddle flew off. Worst part was I landed on my left knee that it turned my kneecap into jelly form. I couldn't walk properly for 3 months. But was back into riding after 2 months. Until now i can't kneel on my left knee due to sharp pain.
Clearly, jumping is a young man's game. As an older rider, I can attest that I now break bones doing things that wouldn't have phased me when I was a kid. enjoy the videos. Keep it up, but stay safe.
Dude, you did not fail. You are slightly nut's but not a failer.
Bloody awesome
I'm watching this with a snapped shoulder blade. No pain no gain🤙
Unexpected chrashes are way worse then others. When i‘m out learning threes or flips I expect to fall on my face🤷♂️ that moment when you know that your going otb is the worst tho
Otb is the worst. If you're going fast especially, there's zero time to react or try to bail. You're just out the front door at 30mph with a bike dangling from your feet.
It's the worst
Wow you truly did rag-doll some of those landings! But hey I'm not a mtb'er but I totally rate your attitude about falling, failing, getting back up and learning from it all. Stout fella!
I'd actually really like to know what injuries came out of those crashes. My friends just had a really bad crash and broke his back on something much smaller than anything in this video. How do you walk away from that stuff???
Alfred Madere i was beyond shook that the crash in that skateparc didnt bust his shoulder
The size of the jump doesn’t really matter, what can injure you is the way you land
You have to know how to land
DANGGGG!!!! These are BRUTAL 😂😂😂
Great video Matt!!
Currently nursing 5 broken ribs and a fractured shoulder blade from a nothing crash.🤦🏽♂️
Nice to be reminded that the best riders crash.
get better soon! hows the 1 month later healing?
Thanks mate!!!
Yeah much better, back to work and back on the bike.
Only XC and my local trails at Danbury Common.
I think I’m done with Downhill🤕🙁
breaking anything is the worst, after my surgery I had horrible vertigo and anxiety just getting the mail lmao! im glad youre better tho!@@paulkelly5616
i fell quite badly and smacked my knee up on the uppers and handle bars the pain was so bad i couldn't believe it and i hobbled around for weeks after seeing you landing on your knees in a few of these i feel your pain!! maybe a video on how you rest and recuperate after a big hit and overcome the fear when you try it again??
great vids matt love the channel keep inspiring us
Matt: crashes suck
Me: I think they show determination
The double backflip on the step down lol
i think you need to make a part two.. this is the reason why you are the best.... great video......
Old school woods rider here. I used to say "A day without blood is like a day not lived," about riding. People consider my crashes creative poetry. Decades later I have old damage that is hard to crank up every day, but absolutely no regrets. Besides, my best stories are about the origins of scars LOL
Wise for your age Matt. Just proves how experienced you are.
I’m Sorry but I absolutely love the “ f**king hell “ right before impact. 7:56 were you bent your forks
Thank you for posting this.... I watch your other videos and sometimes I think I could do some of the stuff that you do and then this brings me all back to reality.... Your pretty amazing man .. I definitely have a ways to go I have never sent it that large..
💪 Your attitude is incredible. Absolute badass in the best way!
i felt the pain while watching
I don’t know what’s more brave, trying all those tricks or showing all the fails on UA-cam lol.
All my respect for riding again after every one of these crashes!
Your the man! I like how no matter how you crash you still push through and persevere. Keep up the good work.
There were some real 'holy sh*t' moments in here.
Love your style! Keep them videos coming. Cheers.
Edit: Just realized after half a year of watching your videos that I'm not even subbed... Now I am.
Matt dude love your channel always catching up to try to improve my knowledge and skills.....keep up the progress man I wish I could go pro ✌️😎👍🔥
2022 it's funny watching matts old videos now and seeing how much he's become a better youtuber. The ridings the same still. 🤣
never watch this to have a laugh but because I have crashed so many times. Nice of you to share man. you do some pretty amazing stuff. keep it going man
You need to check your head, concussions are no joke
I have ample respect for the hard work you've put in bruv! The double back flip over the doubles that knocked you out was insane to say the least. I've knocked myself out once on a jump and have no video of it, but 2 buddies that witnessed it to tell proof of it.ha I was riding a mongoose mdxr 250, I'm talking 1999, and my first full suspension bike.. I ride a Trek Top Fuel 9.8 now and love it, but at 36 my tricks are gettin slim. I love me some down country.
I’m 10 years old and I jump mtb and you inspire me to go bigger and full send!
9:34 - all crashes, no talking
1:03 all different types of action sports... And down the stairs
You had air time to yell bloody hell before the forks bent. 😆
Its so cool to see all the progress you made
matt its not how you fall its how you pick your self back up mate your a trooper bro keep up the good work
Nuts matt,
Your the daddy fair play to uploading your fails!
Show us the fox forks after the case
What a dude bent forks but no broken bones
uff buddy. you need yoga :) glad you have so many lucky angels ! And your motivation is inspiring !
Part & parcel of the sport boy😁if your not crashing your not pushing yourself. We have all had our off's me more than most😝 this coming season i know is going to be good for you matt👌keep up the good work m8 love the vids👍
Matt this is legendary!
Good words at the end. If you're not failing, you're not trying.
I wish my bones could bend like that lol
One word for this sweet guy.... SAVAGE!!!
don't worry we all crash at one point its a matter of when
It's of when, not how u crash! X
It is indeed crashed my dirtbike over a year ago and snapped my femur.. luckily it healed completely in just over 3 months and gives me no pain or problems at all it's crazy really
MATTer. [Instant giggle]
For me, its only when I ride.
Yep
Hate it when an ad comes on and just BUFFERS
I like how you did this video, breaking up the crashes with their stories
2:56 “she a runner she a track star”
Had a super big crash not on a bike, but on rollerblades. Tried to gap from a quarter pipe to bank, done the gap before, took off leaning too forward did a half front flip and shattered my wrist. Probably the worst crash of my life haha
3:00 Matt just realised he can’t fly
I'll bet Martyn Ashton is gonna watch this video in an endless loop till he goes to work tomorrow morning to film a video they use as a part of the dirt shed show of them watching this video... :-P
I have a grade 5 AC separation thanks to riding a downhill on a hardtail, lol glad I'm not the only one that does crazy stuff here and there... Now i'm headed for surgery, but can't wait to recoup and get back on the bike!
Dude ...i love u so much cause youre so funny and entertaining! Btw i've been there in munich 2013 cause i live in munich and I saw your crash live and i was i think 8 years old,so it was soooo freaking crazy for me hahah!!
Props to @redbull to sponsor this friggin madman!
Nice one matt !! I ended up in hospital from Porc in the late 90’s 😂😂
Idk How this man still has balls
Hi Matt thanks for inspiring me to get into mtb!! Your incredible
Nice one Matt
Fair play man 👊🏼
Best vid I’ve watched in a while really entertaining
Mate how are you still in one piece :O Huge respect, awesome vid
Matt: "I dont actually crash on the compound its more places im unfamiliar with. "
2:47 perhaps one of the worst. AT THE COMPOUND
I am a total noob and crashed on a knee-high tabletop and it hurt. Seeing how you crashed I can't imagine how bad this must have felt
Well spoken, but obviously a mad man!!
Failing then succeeding makes the achievement sweeter
